About: I’ve owned 4 dogs throughout my life, my current one being a rescue, taken care of family and friends dogs whenever offered. I value making sure the animals under my care feel energized, satisfied, and rested. I value the owner equally as I do the pet as I’m willing to work within budgets and make accommodations to make sure those who hire me can continue to do so comfortably. I can’t wait to work with you so I can be blessed with responsibility to help make your dogs day amazing. I’m currently working full time Friday-Tuesday from 2 PM-11PM im available anytime in between those hours, as for house sitting I can arrive there by midnight and stay until 12:30PM, on Wednesday & Thursday I am available the entire day! I’m very vocal and will make sure communication is far from an issue. I typically like to start off my dogs day with a walk around the neighborhood on a path I've made for them that is free of any possible triggers, once they're all tired out I to take them back home to play and have dinner, making sure your dog is stimulated and rested accordingly.

About: Compassionate and dependable pet sitter with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have been caring for pets since childhood, providing trusted care for family members, friends, and elderly pet owners. Experienced in maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, providing exercise, companionship, and ensuring pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Skilled in reinforcing basic obedience and puppy training, including potty training, sit, stay, and lay down commands, using patience and positive reinforcement. Dedicated to treating every pet like family by providing personalized attention, affection, and reliable care. Committed to creating a stress-free, loving environment where pets can thrive and owners can have complete peace of mind. With the flexibility of working from home full-time, allowing me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. My schedule enables me to take regular breaks to care for pets in my own home or travel to clients’ homes while maintaining their established routines. I am committed to following each pet’s individualized care plan, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and exercise requirements. I understand the importance of consistency and strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable and owners have complete peace of mind. As a lifelong animal lover, I provide a safe, caring, and enriching environment for every pet entrusted to my care. My home is situated on spacious land with a large, securely fenced yard where dogs have plenty of room to run, play, and exercise. I have three friendly outdoor dogs who are well-socialized and enjoy the company of other dogs. Inside my home, I have two calm, senior dogs who are gentle, well-mannered, and welcoming to visiting pets. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I understand that every animal thrives on consistency and routine. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication (if needed), exercise, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest periods. I also recognize that every pet has a unique personality—some enjoy constant interaction while others prefer quiet companionship—and I respect their individual needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives pet owners complete peace of mind, knowing their beloved companions are being treated with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own pets
About: I am known as a dog whisper, I have been able to calm angry simply through a gentle hand. My chickens follow me around like the Pied Piper. I am retired, so their routine is my routine. I generally rise between 6am - 7am and begin dog walking. After they have been fed, I take care of the other pets. At this time I do not plan to offer boarding on my eight acre hobby farm. If I do, then dogs, horses, cattle, sheep, and goats will be accomodated.

About: At 26 years of age, I reside in a spacious and comfortable abode alongside my spouse. Although we have not yet welcomed children into our household, we are blessed with the presence of an affectionate canine companion. My love for animals has been a constant throughout my life, and I derive immense pleasure from spending time with and caring for them. My pets are a cherished source of companionship, with whom I relish playing and sleeping. As I am currently based at home throughout the week, I have the availability and flexibility to attend to the requirements of any beloved pet. My attentive and affectionate approach towards pet care ensures that they are provided with ample playtime, nourishing meals, and ample adoration. Moreover, my expansive garden area presents an ideal space for pets to engage in playful activities and revel in the great outdoors. Taking good care of pets involves some simple steps like making sure they have a safe and comfy place to hang out, feeding them regularly and giving them plenty of water to drink, making sure they get enough exercise and playtime, and making regular visits to the vet. You also need to keep them clean and neat by bathing and brushing them and giving them some fun toys to play with. No matter where you're looking after your furry friend, whether it's at your own house or someone else's, always put their health, safety, and happiness first!

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
